[00:48] <sparr> I have used tasksel to install kubuntu-desktop on an ubuntu system, then tinkered around a bit with gdm3/sddm/xdm and now my snap-installed programs are no longer on my path. How can I figure out what has gone wrong?
 @acheronuk Hi Rik! Will Kmail 5.10 be arriving in Kubuntu anytime soon? Is there a ppa or anyway to get it at present? Thanks.
 FWIW, KMail is v. 5.10.40 alpha in Neon Dev Unstable (not sure about the other Neon flavors).

[12:06] <captain__> Hi all.  Upgraded from beaver to cuttle fish and lost use of my mouse and my printer. is it possible i need to activate the proprietary drivers some where. i cant find where .
[12:12] <BluesKaj> captain__,  how did you upgrade , clean install or did you, do-release-upgrade?
[12:12] <captain__> not clean install
[12:13] <BluesKaj> so, do-release-upgrade in the konsole ?
[12:13] <captain__> yes
[12:15] <captain__> just verified i did do-release-upgrade
[12:15] <captain__> if there an easy way for me to roll it back i would do that
[12:16] <captain__> not being able to print is hurting my bottom line
[12:16] <captain__> two days of hair pulling why oh why did i upgrade!
[12:22] <BluesKaj> captain__, have you run sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade ?
[12:23] <captain__> i think so
[12:23] <captain__> can i run it again?
[12:24] <BluesKaj> yes
[12:24] <BluesKaj> 'upgrades all packages to latest versions
[12:25] <captain__> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded
[12:26] <captain__> i can run the hp-plugin app in term and show you the errors it throws me
[12:27] <BluesKaj> why do you need a plugin?
[12:28] <captain__> the printer wont work with out one according to hplip
[12:29] <captain__> not sure how much i can paste into here
[12:29] <captain__> heres some high lights
[12:29] <BluesKaj> !pastebin | captain__
[12:31] <captain__> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3S3fFRNQqc/
[12:33] <BluesKaj> did you try sudo with that command?
[12:33] <captain__> yes
[12:33] <captain__> it warns me not the runs thru then fails
[12:35] <BluesKaj> where did you get that plugin, i don't see it in the repos
[12:40] <captain__> i think it comes with the from hp hplip install
[12:40] <captain__> during the install it asks if you want to install the hp-plugin
[12:41] <captain__> when i plug the usb cable for the printer in it pops up and says this printer (hp lasserjet p1102w) reqires propritary plug in and runs the installer
[12:42] <captain__> ive looked everywhere for the plug in as a file and a where how to manually install it ., but that info evades me
[12:52] <BluesKaj> hmm, maybe cosmic 18.10 is too new
[12:53] <BluesKaj> I don't see anything current either
[12:57] <captain__> everything except japanese was working fine in bionic and i shot my self in the foot
[13:01] <BluesKaj> captain__, try asking in #ubuntu, it's a much larger chat and you may find more knowledgeable and experienced help there
[13:01] <captain__> thanks!
[13:01] <BluesKaj> it supports all 'ubuntu flavours
